Not so fast there.... you are forgetting AT&T is the carrier, and they HAVE to do the actual ROM build, MOTO will give them all of the needed firmware and drivers and such, but it is AT&T who actually does the final build and approval for the releases, what we get off the MOT dev sites, actually is a joint effort from both Moto and AT&T.

I have direct information that if the Atrix 2 gets an ICS build, and IF is the word here, it will not be right away.

Why? You will most likely ask. It is becuase they (Moto and AT&T) are more interested in "Selling" you another more expensive phone, with ICS already on it. Both MOTO and AT&T don't get anything by releasing a new version of the OS to your phone. Just because a Phone can run it, does not mean that they will make it happen. Don't wait for something that might or might not come. If that is the attitude then go get a phone that already has ICS on it, you will be much happier.

I have information that IF, this comes out it will be after June most likely, April or may possibly. This last sentence is unofficial information, the official info I got from my client is posted in the second post here.

[Motorola Atrix 2] Clovett:
I agree completely on the time frame. However unlike other releases this one is different for Google. They will press extremely hard and bend over backwards to help update every phone in the field they can. The why is extremely easy

This ICS build will allow Google to build for their tablet platform AND the phone platform. The more phones they convert the larger the base to attract developers. This is the first shot they have had to have a single operating system. If they update every phone that can run ICS in about a year most phones current in the lineup and still in the field will be running ICS. Most tablets will be running ICS. As for the carriers they will leap on board since Google is going to be doing the work for them. The more phones on one platform the easier it will be to support. It's truly a win/win

^ Grabs popcorn :-)
[Motorola Atrix 2] shanghei:
If Atrix 2 does get ICS, it will be a very long time before that happens, Motorola hasnt even released an update to 2.3 to fix all the damn bugs on the phone. Atrix 2 is the red headed step child.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Pilgrimtozion:
Red-heads rock ... FYI ...
[Motorola Atrix 2] seedoubleyou:
assuming the carpet matches the drapes :)

off-topic apologies... back to maintaining positive ICS thoughts...

From what I have read..it would seem that perhaps manufacturers and the "almighty goog" are fighting over device disk space with their proprietary interface bloatware and OS upgrades as well...hence the perpetual speak of "fragmentation" as well... too many differences and no commonality. To someone else's point, hopefully ICS can bring a closer point of unification.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Clovett:
Interesting point well taken, but I'd have to as you this

Assuming you are the CEO of a carrier and you are presented with two paths and only have the time to pursue one course of action.

A) Put your programmers on fixing the current system and take them off upgrading as many phones as possible to ICS, even though the bugs with the phone are minor and don't impede actually using it as a phone.

B) Concentrate on moving forward with one platform so you can decrease support costs overall and get a big fat bonus

[Motorola Atrix 2] big ach:
Long time or not, as long as it comes before my contract renewal date, I'll be happy :-)

Considering this phone came out about two months ago, I will go ahead and assume that most of us just renewed our at&t contracts to get it... I will also assume that most of us have about two years before we can renew our phones :-) so basically, there's no rush guys lol
[Motorola Atrix 2] NIKKG:
The biggest problem I see is that Google is in the process of buying Motorola. The issue is that during such buyouts, there are a lot of movement of people who work there. Usually a lot of instability, layoffs and/or management changes happen during this period. The end result will be that the Atrix 2 will be caught in the shuffle and so I don’t have know if ICS will ever come to this device. Motorola doesn’t even seem to care to address the many bugs as it is with this phone, much less care about ICS.
[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
It all depends on LOE. If the LOE is less than the cost to implement with newer handsets, then it will happen. If the LOE is more than the cost to implement ICS with all new phones, then it will not happen. Look AT&T has 4 different versions of the Iphone that all can run 5 different versions of IOS, and there is not a way to FORCE anyone on an older Iphone to upgrade, becuase there was not OTA until IOS 5.

Support is not a big issue for the carriers, because they really don't support the devices the manufactures do.

You need think way higher than just google and android in this equation and the fact that AT&T still has to support ANY handset (on their network) that has been sold through AT&T or Cingular since 3g rolled out. There are guys at corporate AT&T that still carry the first HTC Tytn phone (the first 3g phone on cingular / AT&T), because it was a beast for the time, and since it is still 3g, and works, AT&T has to provide support for it. Now are there updates from AT&T or HTC, no, but that is why this community is here. Those guys are all running some form of windows mobile 6 on it, so is it the latest, no, does it do the job, yes.

Again ICS might or might not come (at this point the LOE says no, most likely not), I can't spell it out for you any clearer than that or I will no longer have my current customer. I have way more information than I am letting on, that I can not release at this time.
[Motorola Atrix 2] JRW 28:
Motorola has issued very few statements about devices that will be on the upgrade path to ICS and the ones that were stated are on Verizen and they havnt even been given a specific date as to when to expect the update.

AT&T has a very good record at getting updated to their devices and doing it in a timely manner compared to the other carriers. Look at the phones on Verizen and tell me how many are up to date and running Gingerbread 2.3.5 or higher, very few. Heck their famed Thunderbolt is still trying to get the Gingerbread update going. The OG Atrix recieved the Gingerbread update before 90% of all other phones had.

Im not confirming nor denying that we will get it but we have a very good chance considering AT&T's track record even though they are being tight lipped about things and I personally think we will. But hey I have been proven to be wrong also :)

So if Jim says May - mid summer I say that is acceptible in my books. Has anyone seen a PROVEN date as to the other devices yet? NO. We all just have to be patient and see how the events play out. Hope everyone has a good day!
[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
That is exactly what I have been trying to get across, Thanks! I also want to note that the carriers are not the ones that really care about which OS a phone is on or if it is up to date, just that it does not harm their network.

AT&T is really trying to get phones updated as soon as they can, if it is a feasible LOE. And they do have a good track record of doing so.
[Motorola Atrix 2] rdhoggattjr:
I want to know what everybody does with there phone's that it has to be built like a tank. The A2 seems pretty tough. The only phone I ever had that died was because my dog got it. :D
[Motorola Atrix 2] jimbridgman:
This phone is built like a tank compared to other phones. The only issue I have had with mine was I dropped it in a parking lot and now one of the corners has some little rough indentions in it, but that is nothing and hardly noticeable. Heck the other day I was at the corporate store in downtown Dallas, yes the one in lobby of the Wittacre tower

that AT&T's headquarters is in. I am down there twice a month now, and while I was playing with the skyrocket, I broke the back off the phone on display. Neither I, nor one of the guys in the store could get it go back on... they told me that the Samsung phones are so cheap now, that they have to replace the display phone once a month.

How did you get the ATRIX 2 to run cm9?

The End.
[Motorola Atrix 2] smgulsby:
Bumped so we can get an answer.
[Motorola Atrix 2] lkrasner:
there is a thread with a cm9 build in the dev forum. it runs fine, but there is no radio, meaning no calls, texts, or mobile data. until the OTA ics comes out in q3 of this year, as promised by motorola, or we can pull one with cheesecake off of dev servers, it is kind of useless. all users should be checking cheesecake at least once a day until we get something. see the stickied thread for bootloader unlock under the dev section. As you all know development is a group effort, so lets work together to get some serious development going for this phone. hopefully we can pull an unlocked bootloader AND ICS off of the moto severs.

[HTC Sensation XL] :
try a different set of headphones...one which only does not have a microphone, and therefore only 3 pins on the jack.

It seems that the phone (or the one i have anyway) seems to identify any headset with a 4pin jack as a headset and offers beats. I plug my normal ones in and I get an extra setting of HTC Enhancer.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chronophase1:
I've used a number of roms and kernels since I got the phone a week ago. I let the phone fully charge while off to get to 100% and then I wiped the battery stats in recovery. Proceeded to fully drain the battery to recalibrate. Left the house the phone at the usual 96%. Drove to work and about an hour later the phone was down to 83%. My wakelocks aren't crazy. Probably about a few seconds total. I think the hottest the phone has been was 35°C. It did freeze the other day while trying to do the calibration process. Don't know if that helps any. The battery doesn't look bad. Phone was second hand. I bought an extra battery which should be here soon. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Boo222444666:
Hi,

I have a bluetooth keyboard - IGO Stowaway XTBT01, and have successfully used this with CM7 and some older Samsung Stock roms in the past. I was hoping to use this on ICS but have not yet found an ICS combination of ROM and Kernel which work.

None of the recommended apps from market worked for me even though the keyboard pairs and sometimes (but most of the time doesn't say) 'connect to HID device'. But even with this, the keyboard doesn't work.

After flashing multiple kernels on top of JW1/JVZ and others to test this, I found that CF ROOT always works perfectly (maybe due to the fact that this is close to stock kernel?) and all of the other kernels do not work for me that I've tried (eg., Semaphore, Speedmod and others). I did notice that for kernels like Semaphore there are many options one can choose in the tweaks but I'm not sure if this willl improve the compatibility (eg., CIFS, TUN support and others--I don't know what these mean).

Does anyone know if there is a way to get the kernels such as Semaphore or Speedmod, etc. to work with this Bluetooth HID device? Are there settings to change you're aware of? I do miss the benefits of kernels like semaphore (speed+batt life+ color+sound) offer but am not sure if it's possible to get them working with this. Any thoughts appreciated!

Cheers,

:D

CM10.1/Stock works

I know it's been a while and JB is out now, but wanted to leave a stick in the sand for future users. Here's my experience with JB:

CM10.1 nightlies (the recent 4.2.2-based ones) seem to work fine for me with the stock kernel. Switching in other kernels (tried Semaphore and Devil) seems to break the HID in the manner you described (pairs correctly, but no connection thereafter). I'm sticking with CM10.1 for the moment but investigating workarounds.

I work 50 hours a week as a security guard and yet I still found the time to learn to make a couple of themes. Granted my first one sucks I still didn't mind throwing it out there.

For those who are saying no ICS for the photon, you need to look around. The devs have a fairly stable ICS rom up and running for the mopho. Granted it has some bugs, but it's also still in alpha testing so it's to be expected. No, there is no 4G, but it's still ICS!!

Try this.

Charge battery to full. Leave plugged in, Turn off fastboot in power settings and shut phone off. Light will turn orange again and let it charge til green. Boot into recovery and wipe battery stats. After this let the battery drain as low as 10% before recharging to full without unplugging. Do this a few times over a few days. If you don't get more accurate percentages after this then the battery could be messed up.
